May is here and the snow is back. This was an interesting week and a true head scratcher- after getting an interesting email I will break it down for ya. Loved all the pictures people posted on our FB page with our 4 legged running friends. Ogden Trail Running Festival is here and Aric's brain is not.

Fresh back from a magical weekend in Zion and a great time with amazing people. The stoke has been lit and I feel like one lucky dude. Keeping it short and sweet since the Ogden Trail Running Festival is fast approaching and bringing its own little wad of stress. Have a great week and stay healthy!

It was a privilege to sit down with Michael McKnight and hear his amazing journey from a broken back to finding his love of running. Mike is humble and strong, inspiring and real- Mike is what this beautiful sport is all about.

I hope you enjoy the podcast as much as I did recording it. Thank you Mike and Good Luck at Western States!
